The systems will be utilized in DTC’s 3MW and 5MW full conversion wind turbines, which were designed by and jointly developed with AMSC.
AMSC will be shipping the electrical control systems to DTC in calendar year 2011.
DTC, the third largest wind turbine manufacturer in China, plans to begin volume shipments of these multi-megawatt wind turbines in 2012.
Dongfang Turbine vice general manager Ren Jiafu said that the company looks forward to utilizing these electrical control systems from AMSC to manufacture our first 3MW and 5MW wind turbines while also exploring options to upgrade the 5MW to 5.5MW, and plan to begin making volume shipments in 2012.
